    doesn't.
 * GLIBC LoongArch PATCHES (caiyinyu)
  * Needs review.
  * Carlos: What is the status of the ABI? It has been submitted to musl.
  * Adhemerval: I think musl's ABI is done, but there is kernel discussion.
 * nptl: Fix __libc_cleanup_pop_restore asynchronous restore (BZ#29214) (Adhemerval)
  * Carlos: Will review.
  * Broken in 2.35.
 * v3: Fix various NPTL synchronization issues (Adhemerval)
  * Robustness issue, and fixes BZ #19951, which is a real issue.
 * Review ended 54535.
 * Noah: Why can't we use #define to define rseq offset?
  * Noah: Florian isn't here, and I was going to ask him the question.
  * Szabolcs: It's for maintenance reasons. The kernel wanted to grow
    the size of rseq, and we didn't want to have to define a constant
    location for all arches, and we didn't want to define a different
    constant per arch, so we just made it another lookup. You can cache
    the values in  globals if the two TLS accesses are slower than you
    expect.
